Struggle in Russia

Lebouf was very saddened by Carlo Alberto's slowness. He didn't understand why the Italians were so dawdling. The opportunity has already come out. There is no hesitation. Just go up and fuck Radeski. It is the holy king who will unify Italy, so what are you doing with such a good opportunity!

Anyway, Lebouf doesn't understand what Carlo Alberto is waiting for at all. Should the Austrians wait for the collapse of themselves and let Italy complete the unification? This is simply a joke, no matter how useless the Austrians are, it is impossible for the Austrians to let the boss's piece of territory just disappear like this!

In fact, Lebouf's guess is really correct. Carlo Alberto is indeed waiting for Austria to collapse itself. From this point of view, the Austrians are already on fire in their backyard, such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, Transylvania, or even Croatia. Both Serbia and Serbia may rebel and announce their separation from Austria in the near future, so let these little brothers try to weaken the Austrians as much as possible, and then he will give the Austrians a fatal blow at the last moment.

In this way, he has the least risk and the greatest return, so this deal is the most suitable one!

Not only because of chicken thieves, but Carlo Alberto was also deeply troubled by the revolution. The revolution broke out in Italy earlier than in Austria. He was also forced to compromise with those troublemakers and transferred a lot of rights, which made the troublemakers a little more honest.

But this also greatly damaged his control over the country, making him a little suspicious and powerless, so he became more cautious.

To put it simply, Carlo Alberto is a bit like Yuan Shao. On the one hand, he has a high self-esteem and feels that he is the chosen son of Italy, destined to do a great job. But when he really got down to it, he hesitated, fearing that if he failed, he would ruin his hard-won status.

After all, when he was seeking the throne of Savoy back then, he almost lost without any pants left, and he was once in a mess. If it wasn't for Carlo Felice's lack of sons, it would only be his turn to inherit the throne, a distant relative, otherwise Zhenzhen would not even have a chance to come back.

So this also caused his character flaws. On the one hand, he has an adventurous spirit, but on the other hand, because of the shadow of the last adventure, he was a little bit too self-conscious. All in all, this is a very contradictory person.

Carlo Alberto's ambivalence was clearly seen by Cavour. He could see that the king was eager for adventure and had the idea of ​​a showdown with Austria, but he dared not go too far due to the constraints of national power. Of course, Cavour understands Carlo Alberto's worries, because he also has the same worries, and he is also very worried that taking rash actions will not have good results.

But, the reality of the Kingdom of Sardinia forced him or forced Carlo Alberto to take some actions. For the politician Cavour, he was also speechless to the people of the Kingdom of Sardinia at this time.

Probably because of the influence of the victory of the revolution, the people of the Kingdom of Sardinia generally have a kind of blind objectivity, and they all think that Austria is really a paper tiger, and they can be pushed down by this sick cat with just one finger.

And the Italians really suffered enough from the division. For thousands of years, they had to be divided and ruled by Austria and France, and became a poor existence. Think back to when the Roman Empire was at its most glorious, how could they look like this bird.

The surging national self-confidence and the surging revolutionary passion have already dazzled the Italians. Of course, this is not surprising at all. They have always been like this bird for thousands of years. When they are passionate, they are like tadpoles with their brains. With their blood, they dare to pull the emperor off the horse.

Of course, once a setback is encountered, this ambition will immediately drift away with the wind, and the Italians will run faster than rabbits again. All in all, this is a group of neurotics that cannot be judged by common sense.

For example, Mazzini, who unified Italy for three times, had an idea at this time. At the beginning, he pinned all his hopes on France, thinking that the revolutionary France would pull the revolutionary Italy to help Italy win the war. Evil Austria.

He even thought that Pope Pius IX, the chosen son of Pope Pius IX,

The pope is considered the natural candidate to promote the unification of Italy. It's a pity that the latter is much more sober than him, and dare not offend Austria at all.

Disappointed, Mazzini pinned his hopes on Carlo Alberto again, thinking that the successful revolution of the Kingdom of Sardinia was the first candidate to unify Italy, and that Carlo Alberto was that person!

It can only be said that Mazzini did get one thing right, and the Kingdom of Sardinia is indeed the hope of unifying Italy. But Carlo Alberto was not the one chosen by God.

It was he and Garibaldi and Cavour who were truly chosen by God, not Carlo Alberto.

"Giuseppe asked to cooperate with us?"

Cavour, who had just been by-elected as a member of the first House of Representatives of the Kingdom of Sardinia, got the news from his little friend. The excited little friend told him that Mazzini was going to do a big deal, which would directly lead to the unification of Italy, but Mazzini felt that he didn't have enough capital and hoped that the Kingdom of La Sardinia would join the group.

This news made Cavour fall into deep thought, and he was a little moved. Gangzhen is really attractive. If such a linkage can be produced, maybe it will be a big deal!

But this heartbeat is only a momentary thing, because the seasoned Cavour immediately realized the uncertainty. After all, according to Mazzini's plan, the pope is an important part, but now the pope's attitude is not on their side. And the actions on Rome's side are not obvious at all. I can't see the meaning of doing a big job.

On the contrary, the actions of the Austrians, especially Radeski, were very decisive, and they were really decisive in killing. Moreover, France's attitude is also very ambiguous, as if a bit supportive, but without any actual expression, even the French seem to be very vigilant about the Italian revolution. This made Cavour feel that Mazzini's plan was more utopian and less likely to succeed.

Just when Cavour wanted to refuse, his little friend told him a more exciting news: "There are rumors that Russia is very concerned about the situation on our side, and it doesn't seem to reject a unified Italy... "

This news almost made Cavour look like he saw a ghost. He knew Russia's attitude towards the revolution and Italy very well. The revolution is resolutely strangled. Look at what the polar bears did in Wallachia, Moldavia, and Hungary. Are they simply military police thugs who escorted the old forces in Europe? How could they not reject a unified Italy? Woolen cloth? What a dream!
